Gangnam Project is a Canadian youth comedy-drama series, which premiered in 2024 on CBC Gem.[1] The series stars Julia Kim Caldwell as Hannah Shin, a Korean Canadian teenager with dreams of becoming a K-pop star, who gets a job in Seoul as an English tutor at a K-pop training school.[2]
The cast also includes Brianna Kim as Chan-Mi, a student at the training academy who becomes a rival to Hannah,[3] as well as Zeboria, Sean Baek, M. J. Kang, Paul Seungbin Lee, Joshua Hyunho Lee, Angela Son, Taran Kim, Kylie Haasz, Kimmy Choi, Kayleigh Shikanai, Aadin Church, Sonam Kalsang, Soo-Ram Kim, Daniel Junghuan Park, Tommy Chang, Dahyeon Hwang, Judy Min Lee and Soon-Year Lee in supporting roles.
The series was created by Sarah Haasz, based in part on her own childhood experience being treated as an outsider, rather than a Korean, when she participated in a Korean cultural exchange program.[4] It was shot in Hamilton, Ontario, principally on the campus of Mohawk College,[4] and produced by Pillango Productions and Aircraft Pictures.[5]
Music for the show was written by Canadian musician August Rigo.[4]
The series premiered in March 2024 on CBC Gem in Canada, and CBBC in the United Kingdom.[6] A second season went into production in the fall of 2024,[7] and was released in 2025.
